I'm running RedHat 8.0 with a very nice iiyama monitor (perfectly capable of handling 1600x1200 @ 16 million @ 70Hz...

However, I wish to have my linux box displaying 1024x768 @ 16 million @ 70Hz or higher, but I can't!

I can up the resolution, but not the refresh rate, even though the monitor probe has shown the correct values of:

Model: HM903DADTA <-- This is indeed the exact model of the monitor
Horiz: 30-133
Verti: 50-200

I've tried manually changing the monitor's vertical refresh rate settings to "70-200" and even "100-200" and neither of these work.

In Windoze, for example, you can just kinda pick the refresh rate you wanna use, from all that the monitor/graphics card can support. I can't find an equivalent.

It is an on-board graphics card, but a very latest one, and happily supports the resolution, color depth and refresh rate first mentioned at the top of this email when run under Windows, just not under linux.

The drivers are the very latest for this motherboard, graphics card and linux ditro straight of the motherboard manufacturer's site (Intel).

Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance :D
